Disable Tabs: Learner needs to listen to Audio in its entirety before going to the next tab.

May 19, 2019

Hi Everyone,
I have a slide with 4 tabs (each with audio). The learner needs to listen to the audio in full - on each tab - before being able to go click on the next ‘tab’. Once all 4 tabs have been visited, they can then advance to the next slide using the NEXT button. I also need to disable the NEXT button until all tabs have been visited.
I've watch a few videos, and tried to set up variables -True False and conditions etc., but I still cannot restrict the audio and the tabs- and the next button at the same time. Would someone have time to look at my file and add the correct variables/triggers?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Karyn,

I am seeing two requirements from the details you provided above. Kindly refer below for the requirements and suggested solutions for each.

I. To disable the 'next' button and enable after the user finished listening to the audio:

  1. Change the state of the next button to disabled when the timeline starts
  2. Add a variable True/False for each audio and set it to 'True' when the media completes
  3. Change the state of the next button to normal when the media completes

II. To disable the 'next' button on another slide and enable only if the user finished listening to all four audios:

  1. Change the state of the next button to disabled when the timeline starts
  2. Change the state of the next button to normal when the timeline starts if variables for Audio1, Audio2, Audio3 and Audio4 is equal to True.

I created a basic execution of these requirements for your reference. Feel free to amend according to your needs.

Hi Jopney,

Thank you for your response! 

So, I need to disable the NEXT button when the timeline begins, then we need the user to click on each tab (4), listen to the audio in full before they can move to the next tab. On the last tab, the NEXT button will become Normal and they can advance. Also, Id like them to be able to review again if they want to.

Thank you.
